@ItsMattsLaw The joke here is that “just looking at the law and applying it” is not even close to what most (good) lawyers are called on to do on any given day.

being a lawyer seems pretty easy. i mean you just look at the law and apply it. how hard can it be? shouldn’t take more than an hour and a half each week to do it.

@paul_griffiths These are really great analogies and absolute the right conclusion (former banker-turned M&A lawyer who works with all these players)

@fintechfrank Double down - but in the right way. Focus on the long term, amazing use cases for blockchain, ditch the short term, get rich quick focus on price speculation

Interesting dichotomy in the market right now. Been talking to dozens of senior people across the industry (most 5 years plus in crypto) this week. Maybe even 100+. Half want to quit, retire, never think about crypto again. The other half want to double down.

This week’s events will be used by some to paint web3 as the "wild west." In reality, these events, like prior excessive financial risk-taking collapses, are instances of wrongdoing that were preventable. We have to stop this from happening again.

⚖️JW is not wrong. We need the best lawyers on this initiative. In our view, the best lawyers are those who are pro-dev/builder, pro-free market, pro-innovation, and pro-limited regulation. We know regs are coming. We want to guide the sensible innovation friendly regs.
BlockProf@theblockprof

We need the best CEX lawyers and DeFi lawyers together to hash out bill language they could all live with. I’m going to take a shot at that at an event my Crypto Freedom Lab is putting together at the Mayflower in DC this Spring. Who wants to come and contribute?

Adam is right on here. Saying “let’s just regulate crypto like TradFi” in 2022 is like saying “let’s just regulate cars like horse-buggies” in 1922. It’s a fundamental technological change, and ignoring that fact will be disastrous.
Adam Sternbach@adamsternbach

Easy: Crypto should be regulated the same as TradFi. Let’s just do that. Hard: Understand crypto tech and applications. Appreciate the generational opportunity. Develop a sensible regulatory framework over time. Easy kills crypto. Hard entrenches American prosperity.

@VikaBot1 @LizCGil C’mon - if that’s real, that’s insane. no one actually gives a shit what your closing says. Simple rule: just mirror whatever was in the email you are replying to. Mirroring begets positive associations and you don’t have to think about it.

@LizCGil 1st year low point: being eviscerated for writing "Thank you for your time". Midlevel said "you're a fucking idiot if you think that is in any way acceptable and you'll never write that in any email I see, ever again". Then they made me use "Best" for the rest of the deal.

@VikaBot1 @LizCGil No one actually gives a sh!t what your closing is. So a simple rule: mirror whatever was used in the preceding email. Mirroring causes positive associations and you don’t have to think about what to use!

@LizCGil This is good advice. I used to fight with senior attys because my style may be different but that doesn’t make it wrong. Now I have to remind myself… BUT, lack of clarity and value-add in emails isn’t a stylistic difference

My favorite part about posting on LinkedIn is when Biglaw partners show up in the comments to tell me how and why I’m wrong. Makes me nostalgic about my associate days.

@msantoriESQ Need to look for the lawyers that tell you “how” instead of “no”. This is hard in any legal field and agree, crypto especially. But we are out there.

Dear writers of cold emails: It’s hard to get engagement, I get it. I give you a lot of credit for trying. But lying won’t get your targets to engage. Eg, you don’t already “work with several of my colleagues”. Focus on the value proposition instead.
